Topshop to Launch Collaboration With Adidas

It's safe to say that Adidas is having a renaissance in the fashion world right now. The biggest Fashion Month must-have for buyers, editors and designers alike was a pair of the brand's recently reissued Stan Smith sneakers -- Edun's Danielle Sherman even sent models down the runway in customized pairs for the label's fall 2014 show -- and they're rapidly approaching wait-list status. Next up for the classic athletic brand? A collaboration with UK-based retailer Topshop, which will hit stores and the web this month (March 20, to be exact).

The 20-item collection is a re-imagining of some of Adidas's signature pieces from throughout its heritage, including tracksuits in new, slim cuts; three-striped Superstar sneakers in graffiti-like patterns; and slouchy logo tees in soft, updated fabrics. It's sportswear meets street culture at its finest. In a press release, Topshop's Creative Director Kate Phelan adds, "We wanted to bring some femininity to the range and make the collection fit with all your fashion staples; whether you want to wear as a fashion garment or a performance garment the beauty is in how you combine it together."

In news that may not be quite as earth-shattering (or head-scratching) as Margiela x H&M (but is still exciting), Topshop just announced their latest designer collaborator and it's one of our favorite Brit designers, JW Anderson. "I am very excited to collaborate with Topshop. It gives me the opportunity to reach a much wider audience with my designs. It has always been very important to me that my collections are made accessible to anyone interested in fashion and design," the designer said in a statement.
Twenty-seven year old Anderson, who recently won the coveted British Fashion Award for emerging talent, follows fellow rising star Mary Katrantzou, whose latest capsule collection for the high street retailer sold out in a flash.
